That Makes Me Mad!

<h4><strong><em>That Makes Me Mad! </em></strong></h4><p>Psychotherapy</p><p>A Memoir</p><p>A new evidence-based approach to anger control for the use and benefit of clinicians and laypeople. This is a mental health therapist's astute and humorous memoir of career experience made provocative by focusing on a cultural discrepancy between our language and neuroscience. This discrepancy has not been examined by the mental health profession but it represents a contradiction hiding in plain sight. Accessible to therapists and the general public this is a personal insightful and useful accounting. Using the Anger-Loss Model this account provides a more easily understood pathway to one of the most fundamental tasks of psychotherapy: knowing yourself. Later chapters offer extended clinical advice about therapeutic practice as well as an appendix of handouts with permission for reproduction.</p><p></p><p><em>[The book's premise is] fascinating...

I felt encouraged by the premise and challenged at the same time. Anyone who picks up this book opens a window into both their behavior and their future choices. I wish I had written this book.</em></p><p></p><p>-Tobias A. Ryan PsyD Licensed Clinical Psychologist Adjunct Professor of Psychology University of Portland Oregon</p><p></p><p> </p><p></p>
